* Software Availability
The Virtual Execution System is available in package `mono'.
Currently this contains a metadata library and the
disassembler. Please refer to our <a
href="runtime.html">Runtime</a> description for more details
on this part of the project.
The code for the C# compiler as well as the language error
test suite and the class library are in the `mcs' package, we
will move this later into `mono' itself.
In order to make mcs and the class libraries you will need a computer
running Windows with the <strong>GNU make tools</strong> from the
<strong>Cygwin</strong> environment, <strong>Microsoft's .NET Framework
SDK</strong>, <strong>GLIB 1.3</strong> and
<strong>pkg-config</strong>.
<a name="sources">
*** Sources
Stay up to date on the Mono team's development using the
<a href="http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-cvs-list">
mono-cvs-list</a> mailing list.
<a name="snapshots">
It is recommended that you use the Mono source code from either the
<a href="http://www.go-mono.com/snapshots">nightly snapshots</a> or
the <a href="anoncvs.html">Anonymous CVS</a>. The nightly
snapshots are done every night at 10pm EST (Boston Time).
The nightly snapshots are not guaranteed to build, but most of the
time they should. They should give you a window to see what we are
up to.
You can download the GNU make tools and the Cygwin environment from
<a href="http://www.cygwin.com">www.cygwin.com</a>.
You can download Microsoft's .NET Framework SDK from
<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads">
msdn.microsoft.com/downloads</a>.
You will also need to get GLIB 1.3 and pkg-config. The easiest way
to install these libraries on your system is to use the precompiled
packages by <a href="mailto:alex@ximian.com">Alex Graveley</a> located
here:
<ul>
<li><a href="http://primates.ximian.com/~alex/glib-1.3.12-win32-native.zip">
http://primates.ximian.com/~alex/glib-1.3.12-win32-native.zip</a>
<li><a href="http://primates.ximian.com/~alex/pkg-config-0.8-cygwin.zip">
http://primates.ximian.com/~alex/pkg-config-0.8-cygwin.zip</a>
</ul>
<a name="install">
** Installing the software
*** Download the required software.
<ul>
* Microsoft's .NET Framework SDK from
<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads">
msdn.microsoft.com/downloads</a>.
* Cygwin and the GNU Make tools from
<a href="http://www.cygwin.com">www.cygwin.com</a>.
Some people observed problems with autoconf 2.52. Installing
autoconf 2.13 helped in those cases.
* Precompiled GLIB 1.3 and pkg-config packages by
<a href="mailto:alex@ximian.com">Alex Graveley</a>
from
<a href="http://primates.ximian.com/~alex/glib-1.3.12-win32-native.zip">
http://primates.ximian.com/~alex/glib-1.3.12-win32-native.zip</a>
<a href="http://primates.ximian.com/~alex/pkg-config-0.8-cygwin.zip">
http://primates.ximian.com/~alex/pkg-config-0.8-cygwin.zip</a>
* Download the Mono source code from
either the <a href="http://www.go-mono.com/snapshots">
nightly snapshots</a> or the <a href="anoncvs.html">
Anonymous CVS</a>. The nightly snapshots are done every
night at 10pm EST (Boston Time). The nightly snapshots are
not guaranteed to build, but most of the time they should.
</ul>
*** Install Cygwin and the GNU build tools, Microsoft's .NET Framework SDK and the precompiled GLIB 1.3 and pkg-config libraries.
<ul>
* Install <a href="http://www.cygwin.com">Cygwin</a>.
* Install <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads">
Microsoft .NET Framework SDK</a>.
* Change to the <strong>/</strong> directory of your Cygwin
installation.<br>
Unzip the precompiled <a href="http://primates.ximian.com/~alex/glib-1.3.12-win32-native.zip">GLIB 1.3</a> and
<a href="http://primates.ximian.com/~alex/pkg-config-0.8-cygwin.zip">pkg-config</a> packages.
The goal is to install the libraries in the /usr/local
directory of your Cygwin installation.
</ul>
*** On Windows, to install and work on the compiler and the class libraries:
<ul>
* If you downloaded the Mono
<a href="http://www.go-mono.com/snapshots">nightly snapshot
</a>, untar the snapshot.
* Change directories to <strong>"mcs"</strong>.
* Compile:
<pre>
<strong>make windows</strong>
</pre>
</ul>
*** On Windows, to compile the mono runtime:
<ul>
* If you downloaded the Mono
<a href="http://www.go-mono.com/snapshots">nightly snapshot
</a>, untar the snapshot.
* Change directories to <strong>"mono"</strong>.
* Configure, compile and install:
<pre><strong>
./configure --prefix=//c/mono
make
make install
</strong></pre>
</ul>
*** On Unix, to compile the mono runtime:
<ul>
* Install <a href="http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkg-config">pkg-config</a>.
* Install glib 1.3. You can download it
from <a href="ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v1.3/glib-1.3.12.tar.gz">ftp.gtk.org</a>. Maybe you need
to modify your ACLOCAL_FLAGS for pkg-config, for example if
your install prefix is /usr/local:
<pre>
<strong>export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I /usr/local/share/aclocal"</strong>
</pre>
* If you downloaded the Mono
<a href="http://www.go-mono.com/snapshots">nightly snapshots
</a>, untar the snapshot.
* Change directories to <strong>"mono"</strong>.
* Configure, compile and install:
<pre><strong>
./configure
make
make install</strong>
</pre>
</ul>
*** Notes on compiling GLIB 1.3 and pkg-config from source:
<ul>
* Some people observed problems with autoconf 2.52. Installing
autoconf 2.13 helped in those cases (don't forget to do a
`make maintainer-clean' after the update).
* Download, compile and install <a href="http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig">pkg-config</a> from source.
(I had to change line 674 of
<nobr><tt>pkg-config-0.8.0/glib-1.2.8/gstrfuncs.c</tt></nobr> from
<nobr><tt>extern char *strsignal (int sig);</tt></nobr> to
<nobr><tt>extern const char *strsignal (int sig);</tt></nobr>.
<pre><strong>
tar xzvf pkg-config-0.8.0.tar.gz
cd pkg-config-0.8.0
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install</strong>
</pre>
* Download, compile and install <a href="ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libiconv/libiconv-1.7.tar.gz">libiconv</a> from source.<br>
If you dont have MS Visual C/C++ 4.0 or 5.0 or 6.0 you can also try
the binary package available at <a
href="http://www.gimp.org/win32/libiconv-dev-20001007.zip">
http://www.gimp.org/win32/libiconv-dev-20001007.zip</a>.
* Download, compile and install the
<a href="ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v1.3/glib-1.3.12.tar.gz">
glib 1.3</a> from source.
